While there are many of us who like to keep and share photos in digital way, some of us also like to print it to get a physical feel. This requires mostly to attach a printer and print, well, that’s quite a long process. People at Prynt has felt this need that some of us like to print a picture instantly, and thus, they have come up with a case that you can just attach with your smartphone, and it will print photos moments after you shoot them.

How does it work?

The good news about Prynt is that it does not require any ink to print photos. So you just need to buy the case and the paper and you are done. Photos are directly embedded into the paper, thus it has more longevity than a normal printed picture. Apart from camera photos, Prynt can also print pictures from Facebook, Instagram and other photo apps. The use case is really simple, you just take a snap, open the app and it will print the picture, instantly.

What about videos?

That’s where augmented reality comes in. You just take a video of 5-10 seconds and Prynt will print a picture, much like a still snap.

This is pretty cool as from now, you don’t need to exchange files to share memories. You can just snap a video and print it and send it to friends, and they will have it, forever.

With over 4500 backers, this Kickstarter project has become quite viral over the interwebs and netizens are quite excited about it. However, this case is still not in production, and that’s where it needs your help.

For now, Prynt has support for high-end Apple and Andoid phones such as Galaxy S4 and S5, iPhone 5 and iPhone 6. But as this case goes into production, we can expect it to support more phones, specially the low end ones that masses carry.
